Description
Rooted in the natural beauty of timber and inspired by the rhythmic flow of tree branches, the Umthi Armchair embodies organic elegance and quiet strength. Named after the Xhosa word for "tree," the Umthi Range celebrates the untamed beauty of wood — allowing its natural grain, form, and texture to guide each design.
This armchair features a sculptural timber frame that echoes the graceful branching of trees, bringing warmth and character to any space. Upholstered cushions provide generous comfort and can be customised in the fabric and colour of your choice to suit your personal aesthetic.
Crafted in your selection of oak, ash, walnut, or iroko for outdoor use, the Umthi Armchair is a timeless piece that balances craftsmanship, comfort, and nature-inspired form.

Obsessed with this wallpaper!
I just finished my dining room project and I couldn’t be happier with my results. The Vintage Birds and Monkeys Chinoiserie Night wallpaper is so gorgeous and dramatic. The people at Sarza were wonderful to work with. I was able to perfectly customize the scale on the paper to fit my large dining room.

Stunning pieces
I have been looking at the Nguni heads for a while, and finally purchased a large black and two medium natural colored pieces. The process was an easy purchase, quick shipping, and easy to install. They look fantastic on my wall! Highly recommended.

I finally found a stool that has a great esthetic in the right wood finish. It’s a beautiful chair that looks perfect with the caro walnut counter top. John was extremely helpful. Looking forward to working with John again on other project.

Beautiful table
We have purchased several James Mudge pieces from Sarza, including this tapered leg table in oak, along with the skinny harvest benches. These are thoughtfully and beautifully constructed pieces, just stunning. We will enjoy this table as a gathering place for our family for many, many years to come. The superb service provided by the Sarza team also deserves special mention. They go out of their way to answer questions promptly, provide updates while your furniture is in production, and deal with any potential issues with the utmost thoroughness and professionalism.

Exquisite!
I ordered the framed canvas “Sardine Dream” in 35”x50” and could not possibly love it more. I feel like I’m transported beneath the surface of the ocean when I look at it. The canvas arrived expertly packaged and is extremely well made. The rustic wood frame is beautiful as well and only enhances this stunning piece of artwork. I ordered several other framed works and cannot wait to get them up on our walls. Sarza is a local gem, and perusing all of the treasures that the owners personally curate is an experience in and of itself. Go see for yourself!

Hidden gem for interior designers
Sarza is a hidden gem for interior designers. I found a lamp (the Bofred lamp) we had been eyeing, but it was South Africa based. Sarza was the only American based company that I could purchase through. They made the process so easy, so friendly. I highly recommend Sarza for any unique decor item that is unique, and handcrafted by Artisans.

Stunningly Beautiful Sidebard!
When this sideboard arrived at our DR project in Westchester County, I could hardly keep my eyes off of it! A unique combination of craftsmanship and artistry, and our client could not be more pleased! Thank you, Sarza!

Work of art!
This table is truly a work of art. The brass top is such a unique feature and combined with the minimalist shape of the frame, it will have a timeless appeal. Gorgeous!
